"HPL are top draw. They had my car in in the morning and after a few hours it was ready to pick up. Quality of work was great. Also a great place to buy a car from, which is what I did the day after! 10/10."

"Happy with workmanship just wished they mentioned tracking at time of booking so now have to pay £30 extra to come back in another day to have done. If this is something that always needs doing when a car has new tyres fitted why is it not costed into the tyre fitting price? Or told this when dropping the car off?"

"I contacted B&G Autotechs based on recommendation, and their service has been fantastic. In the past, having my MOT done has always been an inconvenience for me but not when I used B&G! They collected my car free of charge, & returned it once the work had been completed. I was contacted at each stage & given a clear breakdown of any costs. Usually I’m not a fan of garages, I find them quite intimidating but B&G are so friendly, and made it a stress-free experience! Thank you so much"

Do you know when your car needs a service?

When do you need to take your car in for a service? The general recommendation is that your car has a Full Service every 12
months (or 12,000 miles) and a Major Service every couple of years (or 24,000 miles). That said, the make, model, mileage and
age of your vehicle will all affect how often it needs a service. Your owner’s manual is a good place to start to make sure
you’re getting your car serviced when you should. You should also think about having an Interim Service every 6 months (or
6,000 miles) if you're covering long distances beyond Oldham on a regular basis, or you know your car has some issues.

What are common repairs your car may need?

Have you ever returned to your usual parking place to find a suspicious dark stain where your car was parked overnight? Take
action fast as engine oil leaks should not be ignored; there’s a danger of potential engine damage or failure if your engine
runs low on oil. If the liquid is dark brown or yellow, and it feels slippery or greasy, it is probably motor oil. A pink or
red slippery liquid could be automatic transmission fluid, while green or orange liquid with a sweet smell is most likely
antifreeze (watch out for pets and young children around this one as it’s highly toxic). A clear, oily liquid could be power
steering fluid. Whatever it is, get the car checked by a trusted garage. Typical costs of repairing a leak are hard to give as
the reason could be something simple such as a worn seal, or it could be a sign of a major issue with your engine. Use
BookMyGarage to find the most suitable garage in Oldham for your needs.

What do you need from your garage?

We all have different needs, and choosing a garage is no different. For some of us, it’s the quality of the overall
service which matters most; not just the work that’s done under the bonnet, but the human interaction that comes with it.
BookMyGarage allows you to compare Oldham garages on everything from their waiting room refreshments or whether having
your toddler in tow is going to be a problem, to how clearly the staff can explain the work your car requires.
